what about this - $50/GB? or do AR sales not count? :)
:D

There have been a lot of PC3200 deals lately. I bought 3GB of PC3200 memory for 3 computers (all but Kingston from Fry's). For each GB of RAM:
OCZ CL2.5 value 2x512MB $54.99AR
Corsair CL3 VR 2x512MB (purchased 2 weeks apart) $49.98AR
PNY CL3 512MB $19.99AR + Kingston CL3 512MB $17.99AR = $37.98AR

Including tax and stamps, that's under $56/GB average.

yup... just got 2x512MB of Kingston PC3200 for $36 + tax... amazing prices :)

The Corsair ValurRAM may have gone back up in price recently but it's still a steal, particularly for A64 users, don't you think ???

The Corsair has faster timings, for only $2.80 more (not at Monarch).


BTW, it's (Corsair) down to $83.80 at ZZF.


NonOC'ers buy ram too :)

Edit: BTW, I've been watching this ram, the Corsair 1GB kit DDR2, and the 2GB kit Corsair DDR2, for a while. Not because of any timings, but because it's been the cheapest memory available for a while now.

Price still moving up. Note to self: always buy ram in May, lol. Looks like they are gearing up for "back to school" already (= price jacking). :disgust:

The Corsair Value is great RAM -
I got in on four sticks when Monarch was @ $79 per gig - Free shipping ruled on that deal too!

I figure I'm set in the RAM dept. unitl Vista is launched ;)

Newegg sale ends soon! If you need RAM, this is about your last chance at this price until next year. As fall/school nears, the price gouging will get worse.

Skyrocketing?? 5% over the last few weeks is hardly skyrocketing.

However, I have heard the sky is falling...

Hummm.....from a low of $75 to todays high of $104, a $29 increase, is not high?

OP updated!

Wow, haven't checked on this thread for awhile. Looking at the list of prices in the OP, I can't believe i bought this on May 31, when prices bottomed out at 75 shipped. Prices are up again today, low is ZZF at $87.60.

I'm looking to upgrade to 2GB of RAM. Would this work well with my OCZ Plat Rev 2 PC3200 512x2 modules?

Hard to say. It *should* but RAM doesn't always work when different brands are paired.

Maybe somebody who has tried this combo can chime in?
